Statement of Significance

This precinct contains well-preserved examples of the mainly Edwardian and Victorian-era homes of tradespeople, shopkeepers and manufacturers of the nearby Bendigo commercial and manufacturing district which developed along with the nearby mining districts. The typical occupants of the precinct shared the localized influence of the commercial area with other inner streets of the city but here the character is concentrated, albeit suffering from its proximity to the commercial centre which spawned it.
